Works as advertised on 2014 Ford Fusion Hybrid

has high hopes for these LEDs and I am not disappointed. Rear visibility when reversing is excellent. I have a rear view camera and sometimes at night I couldn't see very well due to the poor light. now it's comparatively like having headlights. for almost a week now. Installed on a 2014 Ford Fusion Hybrid. It wasn't easy, but it wasn't bad either.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Updates

Very bright best lamps

It is very difficult to buy LED lamps online. There is a lot of misleading information from many sellers. I bought about $100 worth of LED lighting this month in search of the perfect bulb for every position in my car. These are very bright. Too bright for most applications. I measured 4.8W at 12V with a 12V lab power supply and a Fluke meter. I needed them for DRL and am very satisfied.

Pros
  • Brings joy
Cons
  • -

Unreliable quality control

Twice I ordered them and twice they came DOA and I had to ask Revain to send a replacement. The first time, back in July, the exchange went well. They were easy to install, beautiful and bright. This is the ONLY reason I gave them that second star. However, the replacement DOA also arrived with the second set I ordered in November. This is unacceptable poor quality and I will not order again.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Negative impression

OMG those lightbulbs are glowing.

Oh my god, the brilliance of these 921 size bulbs stunned me after I installed them. I have a truck, and when it's dark I have a hard time backing into my narrow concrete-walled driveway. I was planning on installing LED blocks after plasma cutting the bumper of the running board, but didn't get my hands on it. A pair of $13 bulbs gets me through as it gives about 3-4x the lumens. The performance is specified at the level of normal halogen lamps.

Pros
  • It's amazing
Cons
  • dim

Great reverse lights for my 2015 Toyota Highlander

Great reverse lights for my 2015 Toyota Highlander. Shortly after we received this machine in January (2018), I started replacing all the light bulbs with LEDs. The first thing I changed was the reversing lights. They are very bright and allow you to see clearly behind you and make it really clear in your car's rear view camera. They are bright enough to light up the entire front of my neighbor's house as if the car had been turned and the high beams were on.

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Out of date

Far superior to 164 or 168 leds or any standard 912 or 921

As they are the same socket base the only thing that can put you off using them in place of a 194 or 168 , the position. 921 or 912 have a larger envelope and are also larger than 194 or 168. 921 and 912 are high power lamps. They are not dash mountable and not suitable for this application. I have an RV with an electric headlight, a standard 194 that I took out and put in LED. I removed it and put in a JDM ASTAR Extremely Bright 2000 Lumens 921 and it threw a 194 LED bulb out of the water…

Pros
  • Good product for its price
Cons
  • Something different

OH JOKE! - Lamps and accessories for lighting

Very bright and really seems to be 5000 Kelvin. The only issue is that the light output has some streaks and patterns, but that may be due to my reflectors. I love how it turns on or off instantly, unlike halogens which take a split second to turn on or off to full brightness. UPDATE: Possibly after 2 months of use one of the bulbs started to work intermittently. They look so cool and it's a shame to remote start or unlock the car only to see one of the lights not come on. Sometimes yes…

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Only available in white

They are definitely brighter than my stock bulbs

I have a 2006 Honda Ridgeline RTL and while I love it, one of the things that has always annoyed me is that the stock reverse lights were ridiculously dim. Especially noticeable in the winter months when I get to work before sunrise and leave work after dark. I couldn't see anything behind me. With these lights I can now see where I'm going when I'm reversing. I would say they give me the "minimum acceptable viewing distance". Other than that, I only give it four stars. It has more to do with…

Pros
  • cool product
Cons
  • negative gift

I replaced the reversing lights with them on an '08 Subaru Outback and was happy with the improvement. The only reason they don't get 5 stars is because they cause radio interference. (The degree depends on the station) I've tried tackling this with iron chokes but it didn't work. At least the reverse lights don't stay on all the time like reverse/parking lights, so I can live with a bit of static when reversing in exchange for the bright light they produce. I'll edit this review if they fail…

Pros
  • Test for one year
Cons
  • Some imperfections
